Here’s progress on our window/screen wall. The ‘blind’ raises and attaches to the ceiling, letting us view the outdoors or a movie. Raising the screen also fill in the ceiling a bit. Other than hanging some nets and lots of other pendants, I’m hesitant to completely cover the ceiling.

The glass floats were found at a antique shop in Delaware. The fugu light was placed in a clear light globe and fitted with a dyed basketball net. I don’t recall the name, but this method was posted by another user in the craft forum I believe. The glass floats use small spots from Amazon. Because the floats are relatively clear, the light sort of goes right through them. Still an improvement over not having them lit. BFB0CE92-46E7-4B07-BBFB-2AB23137A937

Another fugu light mounted between 2 Chinese style hats-ordered from Amazon and shipped direct from China. Its basic but looks a nicer than I anticipated. More work needed for that. The jade lantern in the corner uses more eva foam carving along with bamboo. Along with a hue lamp set to candle flicker. This turned out fantastic and really makes this corner of the room. Some other float type pendant from Michael’s with a water light and a fugu chime from an antique. The chime needs to be lowered for a better view.

IKEA crates outfitted with Govee Rgb tape and various rums and mugs. This is ever evolving depending on which mugs we buy and how many bottles we kill.
